Miami-Dade Commissioner Daniella Levine Cava toured the county’s Coordinated Victims Assistance Center Monday. She wanted to showcase how $7 million in tax funds from the county are spent to help domestic violence victims.

Violet Felipe-Diaz, a domestic violence victim advocate for CVAC, says about 350 victims sign in per month in Miami-Dade — and 85 percent of those victims are women.

“Understand that these ladies get into an abusive relationship, they leave, and then they go back. So that’s why we get so many returning clients,” Felipe-Diaz says.
